Where feasible, the CSO should meet with appropriate persons on the ship and in the port fadiities to discuss the purpose and methodology of the assessment. The CSO should follow any specific guidance offered by the Contracting Governments,CONDUCT A SHIP SECURITY ASSESSMENT - PART 1 The CSO should obtain the general arrangement plan Of the ship in order to record the information required for conducting the ship security assessment. with respect to : ‘@ Access to ship ‘@ Restricted access ‘@ Escape & evacuation routes ‘© Existing security measuresAccess to Vessel Mooring Lines & Anchor Chains = | INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACCESS TO VESSEL ‘The CSO should obtain and record information regarding: ©The location and function of each actual or potential access point f= T to the ship For these areas obtain. information regard arrangements (existing and optional) such as: their security Locked ys Unlocked Alarms Security lighting Checked regularly by security patrol Monitoring method(s) etc as applicable. ooRestricted Access Bridge ‘The CSO should obtain and record information regarding: ‘© The location of areas which should have restricted access, such as navigation bridge, machinery spaces of category A and other control stations as defined in SOLAS Chapter 11-2, ete. ees Le IS regarding their security arrangements (locked / unlocked etc) ooEscape and Evacuation Routes | and assembly stations which have to [be maintained to ensure the orderly and safe emergency = evacuation of the ship. a ©0EXISTING SECURITY SYSTEMS The CSO should obtain and record information regarding : Existing security & safety equipment for the protection of passengers and ship's personnel.

This is accomplished by determining where the scenario falls (see table below) based on the consequence and vulnerability assessment scores. Following are terms Used in Table 4 as mitigation categories: "Mitigate" means that mitigation strategies, such as security protective measures and/or procedures, may be developed to reduce risk for that scenario. An appendix to the Vessel Security Plan may contain the scenario(s) evaluated, the results of the evaluation, a description of the mitigation measure evaluated, and the reason mitigation measures were ‘or were not chosen. ooCONDUCT A SHIP SECURITY ASSESSMENT - PART 5 ON SCENE SURVEY The on-scene security survey forms an integral part of the ship security assessment. It is through the on- scene security survey that ship security plans accurately reflect ship specific aspects. Prior to conducting the on-scene security survey, information has been collected on the ship, access points, restricted areas, evacuation routes and existing security measures. In addition, 2 threat evaluation has been carried out and additional security measures have been identified. The on-scene security survey brings all this, information together onboard the ship. During the on-scene security survey the accuracy of this information is confirmed and the details of all security measures are finalized for the three security levels adopted in the ISPS Code. ooSHIP SECURITY PLAN Each ship shall carry on board a ship security plan approved by the ‘Administration.
